Son of Khan of Kalat and Three Bodyguards Kidnapped in Pakistan

In Pakistan's Balochistan province, Prince Muhammad Khan Ahmedzai, the son of Khan of Kalat Suleman Khan Dawood, was kidnapped along with his three bodyguards by unidentified armed individuals. According to information shared by police sources, the incident occurred when a convoy traveling from Khuzdar to Kalat was stopped on the highway.

According to a statement from the police headquarters, the vehicle of Prince Muhammad Khan Ahmedzai, who was traveling from Khuzdar to Kalat on Monday night, was intercepted and stopped by armed individuals on the highway. It was reported that the armed individuals took the prince and the three accompanying bodyguards to an yet-unknown location.

The title of Khan of Kalat, descending from the rulers of the historical Khanate of Kalat, holds great significance in the region. While the current Khan, Suleman Dawood, lives in the United Kingdom and Wales, the family holds a deeply rooted historical position regarding the political unity and identity of the Balochistan people.
